The service was amazing! The food is always so fresh and large portion. What a treat! 🙂
Great place to visit with friendly employee and environment. Fresh and delicious food options available as well. Must visit if you are a burrito lover.
Changing the 5 star to 1, because of wrong hours. Went there on 14th Saturday, and 15th Sunday within restaurant hours, but both times it was closed. Consider updating correct hours in Google.
Just another below average burrito place. Branding themselves as vendors of Mexican street food is overly boastful and quite frankly misleading. It’s the same as Chipotle, Burrito Jax, Habaneros, & dozens of other burrito chains. Sickly servings of sour cream, loose wrappings and sad topping options. Staff who don’t ask basic questions such as “for here or to go”. The only extra servings here are mediocrity with a side of disappointment. The decor is cute, and is actually levels above the quality of food or service. Will definitely not be going again!
Had the beef burrito and was very tasty and decent size. A little pricey but good quality. Wish there were more topping options as well. I was also surprised that you had to pay extra for guacamole at a place with the same name..
Got a bowl to go and some chips & guac. Portions are huge. Almost 2x as much as what you would find at Chipotle. Also ordered some tacos and tasted good. Overall, good portion and good tasting. Will eat again.
Huge portions but bland, uninspiring food. I visited the new Mountain Rd., location and being a first time customer, assumed it would be like any other typical Taco/Mexican restaurant. The interior is simple with a funky decor and they have plenty of seating for guests dining in. Staff were very friendly and knowledgable. The menu was fairly standard however there were almost no veggies to choose from when it came to 'building' my burrito: some stir fried red onion and green peppers. Plain brown rice, beans, plain sour cream, and overly dry salsa. My bowl was bland and tasted like white rice with a hint of sour cream. Cool environment and good portion sizes but I expected more flavour and variety from a Mexican QSR.
My friend and I came here to pick up dinner after I took her to her oncology appointment at the hospital. There were 2 employees working, a man and a woman. We placed our order for carry out for 2 burritos for my friend and an order of nachos for me. I requested my chips on the side. The man kept having to stop what he was doing to very patiently instruct the woman. It looked like it was her first day. My friend was quietly fuming at the painful slowness of the food prep, but I chalked it up to the crap time at the hospital. We were eventually rung up (it took about 10 minutes for our food to be prepared, once they started) and I said something along the lines of "oh, it's just your first day, it'll get better" or something along those lines, trying to be encouraging. Then she told me she wasn't new. And that she'd been working there for 3 weeks. YIKES. We took our food and made the 45 minute drive back to my friend's house. Upon arrival, we discovered that there were: -no utensils -no napkins AND -no chips for my "nachos" That's just WILD. I enjoyed my toppings with a spoon. Though not terrible, it seems like they stopped using pepper (aside from the jalepenos I had them include) to season the food, unless you have them add Texas Pete when they build your order. Pictures included of my chipless nachos and our receipt for reference. Original rating from 6 years ago was 5 stars for the excellent food and service
Chicken is in tiny pieces. Couldn t recommend chicken dishes
The food is always fresh and the service is good Vegetarian options: You can add tofu or guacamole as your protein Food : 5/5 |
Food was so delicious. Would highly recommend trying this place out
Excellent food. Fair prices.....but worth it when considering the quantity and quality of food you get.
Food was great. Its was my first time visiting and I was impressed by the quality of the food. Ingredients were all very fresh.
Definitely delicious
Food was good. Good quantity as well. The Staff were very friendly.
Taco Tuesdays is thr best deal around
Stopped in on a whim. Staff was courteous and explained the whole menu options. Food portion was great Food : 5/5
It looks very good at first glance. Im a fan of bouritos and South American cuisine. Unfortunately its not up to par: the bouritos leaks at the bottom, opens/not rolled-tight, aluminum foil is obviously not enough, my pants are dirty from the first bite. The ingredients are not mixed, we just eat guacamole then just rice then the meat at the end. The spicy salsa doesnt sting, and the bouritos cost $18 + tax because you have to pay for the extra guacamole!? The meat had no love, no Mexican spices, no taste... You want to sell Mexican food, you might need to master the technique and the taste. Not even coriander. Very disappointed. Afterwards the salespeople are friendly and it looks clean.
March Saturday 11 2023 I always wanted to stop tonight I did and enjoyed the food mother and I. Food
My favorite is the beef burrito
Yummy tacos for $2.75 on Tuesday
It s very bland. Lots of rice, very little protein. No worth a second try.
I recently tried the burrito bowl, expecting a flavorful delight, but it turned out to be a major letdown. The overpowering sourness completely overshadowed any other taste, and the tofu pieces were solid as rocks. The presentation was haphazard, and the lackluster service didnt help either. Save yourself the disappointment and explore other Mexican food options instead.
Bland flavors. Nothing stands out. The food is completely forgettable. And the worse part is the burnt or uncooked rice pieces which made eating the burrito bowl a very unpleasant experience...
Recently chose Guacamoles catering services for our corporate meeting (60+ individuals) and couldnt be happier. They have numerous menu options to fit your crowds taste, with a variety of dishes to suit all dietary requirements. You wont find much catering services that offer vegan and gluten-free without hassle. Their catering menu also accommodates every budget. The staff was friendly and attentive, and ensured on-time delivery with no items missing. We will definitely use their services again.
I dont understand how someone would get quick Tex-Mex food anywhere else. Hands down the best of all the burrito spots. The staff are always friendly too. Notl tables to sit at, but there are stools and a bar ledge around the windows. Vegetarian options: Vegan options!
Great food and value.. especially on Tuesday
Very good food, quick and easy takeout with gluten free options.
Awesome food and service.
Delicious food, good size portion for the cost. Lovely staff. Will come back again:)
I just ordered a burrito bowl on rice. It is the most amazing thing I could possibly be eating right now. And the portion is HUGE! The cilantro lime rice, combined with guacamole and fresh grilled veggies is to die for. I have found my new go to for a special treat
Stop in here ony way thru, excellent service, great staff, fresh tasty food !
The attention and service of the staff awesome
Delicious meal, generous portions, friendly staff not much more you could ask for
Being born and raise in México can tell your for sure that this is no Mexican street food. People who know the real flavours from Mexican street taquerias would agree with me. Ordered 2 carnitas tacos and no flavourful at all, very disappointing experience, definitely never going back
I have been to few Mexican restaurants but this one is sauce less, iceburg lettuce less place. They need to keep sauces in the store. Also lack of toppings. I love bar burrito over this.
This is a regular spot for me for workday lunches. Fresh ingredients, fully customizable and a great option if you have special dietary concerns. Highly recommend discount Taco Tuesdays! Dietary restrictions: Can do vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free and red meat free
Delicious!
Awesome food!!
Love the taste happy with the choices wish I could count calories here especially that everything is portioned I feel a lot of other restaurants are keeping up with the Summer Body hype even Pita Pit, McDonalds, Tims, Wendys and more... Has daily value information on the food youre eating so you can plan your meals. This would reinforce me coming over more often.
Healthy,large portions for a fair price.i just wish they had more healthy beverage options.
I told the lady it was my first time there, and she just stared at me, so I asked for a burrito and was still no help during the ordering process. I was hoping she would explain the food, the spices on the different meats, something, I got nothing. And it was cold.
Great place to get a filling meal, lots of flavours and some mexican cola as well!
i was at guacamole to go eat supper and there was two girls working last night. one of them kept raising her voice and bossing the other on around even though you could tell the girl worked there much longer then the rude lady. she kept saying you have to do this this and this while she took pictures of herself? the other girl who was very sweet kept her voice at an appropriate level even though you could tell she was aggravated. the sweet girl was clearly a teenager while the newest yelling girl was clearly in her 20s. it s so wrong why would a teenager have to deal with that?
SO happy we chose to go with Guacamole as our caterers for our wedding! Super friendly and very generous with portions. Great option for those with dietary restrictions. Everyone raved about the food long after the wedding was over - happily recommend them to anyone!
Super good, filling, and friendly staff.
no guacamole ?? Only sour cream?? And all the grilled veggies were raw... My friend also ordered the burrito bowl below, there was again no guacamole ?? Not sure if they were out but their name is guacamole?
Yummy burrito bowl, love the pulled pork
You sell Jarritos! Those are manufactured in Tultitlán, State of Mexico. I am Mexican and I want to work with you. I love cooking.
Very good adaptation of food and waitresses who have the necessary attention
Stopped by for the 1st time ever today - so impressed!! Everything was super fresh, huge portions & lots of healthy options. Not to mention, friendly & quick service. Will definitely be back
I dont understand how this place stays open. Its not a bad place , but for so-called mexican food, everything is bland and tasteless. To me, it tastes like buying the old el paso(tm) taco kit and making it without any real spices, garlic, lime, chili, everything that makes real mexican food pop. BORING.
Burrito Bowls for the win !!!!!! Only takes a few minutes to order, its awesome.......Ive had one 3 days in a row now :D CHECK IT OUT
Best burrito bowl I ever had, so much it made two meals.
Food is excellent
Delicious tacos
Food was good
Its pricey. But always fresh. We had a lovely employee serve us.
1st time here, there spicy sauce was tasty and I order a burrito bowl was pretty good they only forget to give me a way to eat the bowl lol. Glad we were heading home.
Staff are poorly trained and awkward. I ordered a carnitas and guacamole burrito (~$15 with tip) and the person helping me didnt know what carnitas was. They used wildly incorrect portion sizes, giving me a very small amount of meat, and a huge amount of tomato salsa and sour cream, and didnt seem to know how to roll a burrito. This is definitely the fault of the owner/management and not the poor, undertrained person who was serving me. They clearly needed much more training if they dont even know the menu items. The other two staff in the store didnt help at all, they just silently watched with no input. Thankfully another staff member eventually remade the burrito once we requested and explained, because it was stone cold from all the tomato salsa and sour cream. After all this, the burrito was fine tasting, if a little on the bland side. Very awkward experience, but Im giving 3 stars since I did eventually get an edible burrito. I cant imagine how badly they may make delivery orders that you cant have remade. Try somewhere else.
Great food, generous portions, fast service and competitive prices.
It was ok, but expected better from the reviews I saw, other places in Moncton have better quality Mexican food.
Food was good and the service was excellent.
Friendly service, good food, good value.
Of all the Moncton locations, this one always comes out on top. The staff is amazing, service is always quick even when there multiple parts of orders at once, the ingredients are always fresh. I also love the Guacamole franchises do Taco Tuesday deals
This is not an authentic street taco. That is more like tex-mex style.
Good quality food. Clean and polite staff. Portions worth your money and more. Enjoy!
Great people and service and food
Ita ok but when you expect a place you can go an sit at a table to relaxe it a litte off. Its more like a fast food style.
Its delicious and reasonably priced
Really good tacos and bowls. 100% would recommend.
Food there always tastes fresh, and has such great flavor. I do find that the rice is a tiny bit undercooked at times so Id recommend asking them when the rice was made just to ensure that freshness and no undercooked rice.
Good expirience... absolutely love this type of food!
Ok
Great food and great service
Awesome spot! Locally owned, delicious food every single time and fair prices!!! Truly the best chili in town! The guacamole is also to die for!! Love this restaurant such a treat!
Is not a real Mexican food cause they dont even have corn tortillas and for the price I was expecting more
Place has gone downhill, went a couple weeks ago and portions are a lot smaller but the price is the same. Wont be going to guacamole anymore. Just Sad.
Very nice food, a good middle between fast food and healthy food! :D
Always favorite
Not as good as the Morton location. Server only used a half scoop of rice compared to the 2 the other stores use. My burrito wasnt properly mixed and not wrapped like a normal burrito. All the ingredients were in their own compartment. Meaning one section was all hot sauce and cheese the other only rice and the 3rd compartment the protein. The rice was dried out and hard, maybe if they werent so cheap with it they would be serving fresh rice. Not going back to the mountain rd location its has poor parking as well.
The food was amazing, the price was horrible! Way too expensive for 3 little tacos! I needed more food after eating here... and spending nearly $40 for 2 people!
Nice quick bite
Really good food and good service
Healthy ingredients, generous portions and great service. You wont be disappointed.
By mistake, I have wrote a bad review that some items were missing from my order on SkipTheDishes. Sorry. Everything was as ordered. I have forgot to order drinks. Sorry.
Good food at a good price. Localy owned. If your looking for some guac and beans, then this is it!
Pros: Reasonable prices, clean establishment, busy street view, big windows, free infused water! Cons: minimal inside seats- all bar-style & uncomfortable, not superbly flavorful ingredients. I always feel bad for servers who have to repeat options for customers a million times a day - there should be visual cues to notate the types of ingredient choices on the window similar to Subway bread options (especially during the current Covid-19 situation where the servers must raise their voices to be heard through their masks).
Like many other taco bowl places, very tasty and filling, very generous portions
Went there last Tuesday and it was Taco Tuesday! Yum! I certainly cant complain about portion size cuz it was overflowing to the point of minor aggravation...not to be taken as a compliant, its not you its me! Anyways, it was yummy but could be injected with some more flavour. Mexican food is all about sharpness and acid(lime) and thats what the 4 star is about. Kick it up a notch and Im sure youll get to the 5 star. I dont mind the stool seating but my company had a bit of a time with it because of her age and stature. Cool and cozy spot! Thank you!
Great Restaurant. Have ordered the family taco kit a few times. All of the ingredients are packaged neatly. Portions are big enough for a family of four. My kids love making their own tacos. Left overs are easily stored to the fore mentioned packaging. Nothing but a great experience. Everything is so fresh. True experience with Corn Salsa, Lime Rice and of course the Guacamole. This is definitely not a Taco Bell where it is a simulated flavor and stale. Great. Love it!
good and fresh of the day
Fresh tasty food the way you want it Mexican style. You choose your ingredients. Friendly service. Recommended highly.
So good its almost addictive. Clean, great food and service plus reasonable prices make this place a favorite.
Comfort food after a long day at work. Looking at the cars drive by eating on a stool alone at 10 pm. Lights all over and street noises abound. Enough to fill the calorie void created by the hustle and bustle that sometime makes us forget to take the time to eat. Fills a belly right.
Love it
Ensalada is a great value, so tasty!
I am not a fan of guacamole.....but this place is so much more! Great food, and you sure get a lot for a real good price! Have become addicted to the berito bowl.
Quick, healthy and delicious :)
Friendly staff, great food. Wonderfully portioned. You get your moneys worth and it tastes great.
Burrito Bowl is the best value.
Ate at the new 1634 mountain road locations a few times and I have to say im very unimpressed. First time was fine, second time the food smelt spoiled and was unable to eat it, and the most recent time a hair was found in the food by being consumed and another hair was visibly resting on top of the food. A fourth visit will not be on my to do list any time soon
Delicious and healthy, love this cute place so much!
My favourite fast food in Moncton. Try the burrito bowl! Incredibly filling for a good price
Great food
Delicious!
The food amis very tasty, healthy and fresh. One of mine and my familys favorite. Very to see one open in my area
Great Mexican food!!! Fast service and affordable.
Great quick lunch spot. Large portions. I always stop here when working in moncton.
Bland burritos. I wont be returning
Delicious burrito, lots of options available, including vegan. Would be nice to have a splash of (really) hot sauce with it as well.
Good was great! Fresh and plentiful.
Almost 15$ for 3 tiny tacos. RIP OFF. Also my food was cold and the flavour wasnt anything special. In hindsight I shouldve spent 10$ on a 1/2lb of beef and a taco kit. And ate until my hearts content. Dont waste your time or money here; wildly overpriced and subpar flavour. Served COLD.
Lots of taste at a fair price
The workers were great and food was only okay not enough spices on meat and there werent any quasidilla
So delicious and not too expensive.
So happy its open late (10pm) Love the eco-friendly cutlery they offer.
I have celiac and they are fantastic for accommodating my allergy.
Some of the best burritos i have had in a long time
Definitely have to revisit I was hungover so I only had chips and guacamole but the chips were a little stale and they were cold not my favourite. But I may revisit.
Would of expected better customer service at the North End location. The young lady working was very polite but there was a young man working who just had a tertible attitude. Had his hat on backwards and just acted like he could care less. My husband was even surprised by his attitude. He was just standing around and didnt even say a thing when we came in. Seemed more interested in music and his phone. The girl working stopped what she was doing to help us while he stood around. We dont complain much and are not picky people. Just felt like something needed to be said regarding this.
Amazing food with super staff.
Food was good, reasonably priced and good portions
Typically a better experience. Unusually small portion and the chips were stale.
Came here for the first time today! Service was amazing... and the food!!!! Oh my goodness... best tacos Ive ever had!!
Great food, awesome price on tuesdays
Salad bowl was tasty
Yummy Guacamole
Always a great experience. The food is so fresh. I wish theyd open one in Halifax (Dartmouth would be better...)!
Real food, made in front of you. Fresh and bursting with flavour.
